HDP 3.0 Cloudbreak Deployment possible?

I just got a Cloudbreak 2.7.1 deployer server running. The press release for HDP 3.0 mentioned that is was possible to deploy 3.0 using Cloudbreak but HDP 3.0 isn't an available option under 2.7.1 (HDP 2.6 only). Do I need to upgrade Cloudbreak, add an MPack or how should I deploy HDP 3.0 via Cloudbreak?

I ran into the same issue with CB 2.7.1. I'm sure there must be a better way to get it resolved, but here are the steps I used to create an HDP3.0 blueprint first, then further create an HDP 3.0 cluster by using CB 2.7.1:

2. Also, if I use the custom blueprint (Data Science: Apache Spark 2, Apache Zeppelin with HDP3.0) supplied by you in this thread and try to create a 3 node cluster, there is a timeout happening due to which cluster creation is failing every time (this is not happening with HDP2.6 default blueprint).

Cloudbreak 2.7.2 or earlier does not fully support HDP 3.x. That's why no default HD 3.x blueprints were included. This doesn't mean that it is impossible to create some HDP 3.x cluster; it just means that there was no sufficient testing completed and/or that no changes were made in Cloudbreak/Ambari for Cloudbreak to support it. A future Cloudbreak release will support some HDP 3.x release(s).

Regarding the second question, what I meant to say is that there is always a limited number of blueprints provided by default; You can always create your own. If we do not ship one for EDW-ETL then you can prepare one by yourself snd upload it.

@Dominika Bialek : Hello Dominika, another interesting thing I found out - if I change the stack version to 3.1 in your HDP3.0 blueprint to try to create HDP3.1 cluster, it fails with the following error (but runs well with 3.0) -

Couldn't determine Ambari repo for the stack: <blueprint-name>

Change made:

"Blueprints":{

"blueprint_name":"hdp31-data-science-spark2-v4",

"stack_name":"HDP",

"stack_version":"3.1"

},

So, does it mean the latest Cloudbreak version (2.7.x) can support HDP3.0 but not HDP3.1?

Another follow up question:

When you said "the plan was to only ship EDW-Analytics with HDP 3.x", does it mean the customization of blueprint will not be possible in the current Cloudbreak version to include other components that come with EDW-ETL?
